In Anavatan, the city of the Silver Lake, the gods manifest on a regular basis. But if you are among the unpledged, it is hard to survive, especially during the three-night-long chaos known as Havo's Dance. When Havo's storms sweep through Anavatan, anyone who is unaffiliated had best find a safe place to hide or they risk madness or death. But this year, three young street orphans have been chosen for special attention by Incasa, the god of prophecy.When that God's dice roll during the height of Havo's Dance, these three boys-thieves and con artists-will discover their destinies. One will be bound by a life-or-death pledge that will see him marked as the future Champion of the War God, another forced to walk a perilous road as he seeks to master his talent as a seer, and the last will be cast forth from the city and claimed by the hungry spirits seeking a way into Anavatan and the precious power contained in the Silver Lake.

I also very much liked the approach to gender/sex; there are people who are "bi-gender" and who can apparently at will change their genders; apparently even other people can petition a god and have her/his gender changed. Committed relationships have nothing to do with the sexes or genders of the people involved, nor does parenthood.
On the other hand, almost all of our main POV characters are male.
I am not at this point sure if I'll continue with the series- while i really liked the world, it seemed long to me- and apparently extends through 4 more books!- and I would probably (petty of me, I know) find it more interesting if at least ONE of the main 5 characters were female. ( )
